MEB
Modularer E-Antriebs-BaukastenThe volume platform of Volkswagen Group: rear-wheel drive as standard, motor on the rear axle, from the compact ID.3 to the ID. Buzz van. The platform now carries sixteen models across six brands. The entry versions have switched to LFP cells — cheaper and more robust — while the larger packs stay on NMC.
MEB is the EV platform of Volkswagen Group, in production since 2020, with a 400V architecture. The MEB platform carries 16 models from 5 brands. The WLTP range of the current variants on MEB runs from 358 to 703 km.
Pick the car first, then the version — chemistry, battery and drive differ per version.
